Service members must give employers spoken or written notice of military service. Employers then are required to grant time off. Examples include:

• Military missions. Time off must be granted whether the reservist has been ordered to federal active duty or volunteers for a federal mission. Federal law typically does not cover state activities for disaster relief and other similar missions. Many states have laws similar to federal law to cover such contingencies.

• Guard or reserve unit training. This includes monthly unit training assemblies and annual training for members of drilling units. It also applies to any other training the military deems necessary, such as acquiring new skills for a military job or retraining in a new specialty because a reservist’s unit is deactivated.
